Trump Slams Obama for Not Stopping Russia From Meddling With Election

June 20, 2017
President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Thursday morning to bash former President Barack Obama for not doing more to stop Russia’s meddling with the election, because any alleged interference would have occurred during his administration.
========
========

TRUMP IS COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF THE UNITED STATES.
HE HAS THE POWER TO SEND THE ELITE FIGHTING FORCES OF THE UNITED STATES TO SEIZE BARACK OBAMA AND QUESTION HIM ON HIS ALLEGED TIES TO RUSSIA AND OTHER CRIMINAL ELEMENTS.

IF THE SECRET SERVICE AGENTS WHO ARE ASSIGNED TO GUARDING THE FORMER PRESIDENT OBABAMA, OUT OF A MISPLACED SENSE OF LOYALTY TO OBAMA, GET IN THE WAY OF OFFICIAL AGENTS OF THE U.S. COMMANDER IN CHIEF, THE AGENTS HAVE THE RIGHT AND DUTY TO GUN DOWN ANY AND ALL ENEMY AGENTS.

HAIL TO TRUMP.

LET'S CLEAR UP THE RUSSIAN CONSPIRACY THREAT BY SEIZING OBAMA, DEAD OR ALIVE, AND FORCING HIM TO DISCLOSE HIS TIES TO RUSSIAN POLITICOS AND GANGSTERS.

A TRUMP SUPPORTER AND LOYALIST.
LET'S MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!

IF YOU THINK THAT EMAILS OR OTHER INTERNET COMMUNICATION SENT TO ANYONE IS SECURE FROM US SPYING WITHOUT A SEARCH WARRANT, THINK AGAIN.

ANY ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION IS OPEN TO THE FBI, LAW ENFORCEMENT, OR OTHER AGENCIES, OFTEN WITHOUT A SEARCH WARRANT.

NSA's use of 'traffic shaping' allows unrestrained spying on Americans

By using a "traffic shaping" technique, the National Security Agency sidestep legal restrictions imposed by lawmakers and the surveillance courts.
Zack Whittaker

By Zack Whittaker for Zero Day | June 22, 2017 -- 13:00 GMT (06:00 PDT) | Topic: Security



A new analysis of documents leaked by whistleblower Edward Snowden details a highly-classified technique that allows the National Security Agency to "deliberately divert" US internet traffic, normally safeguarded by constitutional protections, overseas in order to conduct unrestrained data collection on Americans.

According to the new analysis, the NSA has clandestine means of "diverting portions of the river of internet traffic that travels on global communications cables," which allows it to bypass protections put into place by Congress to prevent domestic surveillance on Americans.


CBS News coverage:
Legal loopholes could allow wider NSA surveillance, researchers say


The new findings, published Thursday, follows a 2014 paper by researchers Axel Arnbak and Sharon Goldberg, published on sister-site CBS News, which theorized that the NSA, whose job it is to produce intelligence from overseas targets, was using a "traffic shaping" technique to route US internet data overseas so that it could be incidentally collected under the authority of a largely unknown executive order.

US citizens are afforded constitutional protections against surveillance or searches of their personal data. Any time the government wants to access an American's data, they must follow the rules of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance (FISA) Court, a Washington DC-based court that authorizes the government's surveillance programs.

But if that same data is collected outside the US, the bulk of the NSA's authority stems from a presidential decree dating back more than three decades.

The so-called Executive Order 12333, signed into law by President Ronald Reagan in 1981, went on to become the bulk of the NSA's authority, expanding the agency's collection capabilities to both foreign and domestic targets. The order is far more permissive than the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, as enacted by Congress, as it falls solely under the watch of the executive branch and is not reviewed by the courts.

A former NSA executive turned whistleblower Bill Binney once described the executive order as a "blank check" for the intelligence agencies to conduct surveillance when other laws fail or don't reach far enough.

Although the new research notes that the agency's ability to carry out the traffic shaping technique is unknown due to the highly classified nature of any surveillance program, the NSA can use its legal powers to "sidestep legal restrictions imposed by Congress and the surveillance courts," said Goldberg, who authored the report.

The government's use of traffic shaping exploits a fundamental principle about internet traffic: data takes the quickest and most efficient route, which sometimes means bouncing from different countries around the globe, rather than staying within a country's borders.

That allows the NSA to vacuum up data it treats as an overseas communication -- with little regard for whether or not the data belongs to an American.

One leaked top secret document from 2007 details a technique that allows the intelligence agency to exploit the global flow of internet data by tricking internet traffic into traveling through a set and specific route, such as undersea fiber cables that the agency actively monitors.

The document's example noted Yemen, a hotspot for terrorism and extremist activity but difficult to monitor because the NSA has almost no way to passively monitor internet traffic from the cables that run in and out of the country. By shaping the traffic, the agency can trick internet data to pass through undersea cables that are located on friendlier territory.

Goldberg's research takes that logic and focuses it on US citizens, whose data and communications is out of bounds for the intelligence agencies without a valid warrant from the surveillance court.

The government only has to divert their internet data outside of the US to use the powers of the executive order to legally collect the data as though it was an overseas communication. Two Americans can send an email through Gmail, for example, but because their email is sent through or backed up in a foreign datacenter, the contents of that message can become "incidentally collected" under the executive order's surveillance powers.


"Instead, the NSA could use 'traffic-shaping' techniques to deliberately send traffic from within the US to points of interception on foreign territory, where it could be swept up as part of operations that would be illegal if conducted on US territory," said Goldberg.

To that point, former US State Department official John Tye, who had classified knowledge about how the executive order worked, confirmed in a 2014 interview that the government could "keep and use" the data collected on potentially millions of Americans, even if the sole target was an overseas foreigner.

The research cites several ways the NSA is actively exploiting methods to shape and reroute internet traffic -- many of which are well-known in security and networking circles -- such as hacking into routers, or using the simpler and less legally demanding option of forcing major network providers or telecoms firms, into cooperating and diverting traffic to a convenient location.

Goldberg noted that sans any conclusive legal or public definitions from the FISA surveillance court on whether or not the practice is legal, the loophole remains, and "eliminating it calls for a realignment of current US surveillance laws and policies," she added.

"The modern Internet has changed the way that Americans communicate," said Goldberg. "These changes call for a fundamental realignment of US surveillance law -- specifically, the legal boundaries that distinguish interception of Internet traffic on US territory from interception abroad must be broken down," she said.

"Americans' Internet traffic should enjoy the same legal protections, regardless of whether it is intercepted on US territory, or intercepted abroad."

As it stands, the law that governs the NSA's use of collecting foreign and overseas collection -- the so-called Section 702 statute -- is set to expire at the end of the year, five years after it was first reauthorized after its debut in 2008 under the FISA Amendments Act.

"Congress should not miss this opportunity to consider revising FISA's definition of 'electronic surveillance' in order to eliminate loopholes that allow the executive branch to unilaterally conduct surveillance of American Internet traffic," said Goldberg. "Undertaking this revision is a crucial step toward ensuring that legislative and judiciary branches have a firm hand at protecting the privacy of American communications."

An NSA spokesperson would not comment on the report.

"We do not comment on speculation about foreign intelligence activities; however, as we have said before, the National Security Agency does not undertake any foreign intelligence activity that would circumvent US laws or privacy protections," a spokesperson said.

I'VE BEEN A MEMBER OF SOME CLASS ACTION SUITS.
BUT I'VE NEVER REALLY MADE ANY MONEY ON ANY OF THEM.
I REMEMBER ONE SUIT, AGAINST GATEWAY COMPUTERS.
THEY SOLD COMPUTER MONITORS THAT OFTEN FAILED IN A SHORT PERIOD OF OWNERSHIP.

MY COMPENSATION WAS A $10 TICKET THAT I COULD USE TO PURCHASE ANOTHER GATEWAY PRODUCT.
WHILE THE LAWYERS MADE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS CASH FOR THEIR COMPENSATION.

THAT IS THE USUAL RESULT OF MOST CLASS ACTION SUITS:
THE LAWYERS GET A HUGE AMOUNT OF COMPENSATION, AND THE PEOPLE WHO WERE DAMAGED, USUALLY GET LITTLE OR NOTHING.

Anthem customers to get less than $1 each after 2015 breach

The lawyers who brought the suit get up to one-third of the $115 million settlement.
Zack Whittaker

By Zack Whittaker
June 26, 2017

Anthem, the largest health insurance firm, has agreed to settle a class action suit following a 2015 hack of its systems for a record-breaking $115 million.


But after lawyer fees and costs, the victims of the breach -- all 78.8 million current and former customers, according to a company statement last week -- will only see a fraction of the settlement figure.

The proposed settlement goes before a federal judge next month. If approved, it will be the largest data breach settlement in history.

The $115 million fund pays for at least two years of credit monitoring; compensation for those who already paid for credit monitoring; and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the breach.

But attorneys' costs and fees can take up to one-third of the fund -- $37.9 million -- leaving every affected customer with about 97 cents each.

Here's how the rest of that fund breaks down:

Credit monitoring firm Experian gets $17 million from the fund to provide credit monitoring services for each of the affected current and former customers for two years.

For those who already enrolled in credit monitoring, the fund will provide cash compensation. That so-called "alternative compensation" will pay out $36 each, or up to $50 if there are still funds available, and so long as the affected customer applies for it within three months of the settlement agreement.

The fund also allows current and former Anthem customers to claim back "out-of-pocket expenses incurred by consumers as a result of the data breach."

The settlement agreement states that any evidence to show a customer took preventative measures after the breach, such as obtaining credit monitoring or credit freezes, would be "fairly traceable" and considered for reimbursement. If the aggrieved customer proves their case, they can get reimbursed from a $15 million pot, which pays out case-by-case and only lasts as long as there are available funds.

If there's anything left in the settlement pot after that, it will be split equally between Purdue University's Center for Education and Research in Information Assurance Security, and the non-profit rights group Electronic Frontier Foundation.

One lawyer, who did not want to be named, told me that these kinds of settlements give attorneys a "huge payday." all while their clients "get enough to buy a couple sticks of gum each."

Anthem is also mandated to allocate an unknown level of non-settlement funds to update its systems to an industry-standard level, such as encrypting data and installing access controls.

As a result of the settlement, Anthem can avoid admitting guilt or wrongdoing for the breach, meaning it won't take any responsibility for its own failures to use encryption and other security measures. A company spokesperson downplayed the breach, saying that there was no evidence any compromised data was sold or used to commit fraud.

That probably isn't much solace to the millions of customers whose data was stolen, and whose breach of private information is reduced to less than a dollar.
